Origin: Sri Lanka

Sri Lanka

Miners in Sri Lanka employ age-old techniques that have been used for thousands of years while minimizing damage to the environment. Government regulations promote the use of low-impact mining techniques as well as remediation of the land after mining is complete. In addition, new ventures must undergo an assessment by environmental groups.

carat

A carat is the unit used to measure a diamond's weight. One carat equals 200 milligrams or 0.2 grams. Although carat weight and the size of a diamond are related, the carat does not directly measure diamond size.

ACTUAL DIAMOND SIZE ON SIZE 6 HAND

SYMMETRY

Describes the alignment of the facets of the diamond. If facets are misaligned, the diamond may poorly reflect light. Symmetry is graded from Ideal / Excellent, Very Good, Good, Fair, or Poor. Symmetry grades of Good or higher have the least effect on the brilliance of the diamond and are suitable for the finest quality jewelry. Certain gem labs, such as Gemscan, incorporate Symmetry into an overall Cut grade.

DEPTH

The height of a gemstone, from the culet to the table. Depth % is the height of the diamond as a percentage of the girdle diameter.

Depth

The height of a gemstone, from the culet to the table. Depth % is the height of the diamond as a percentage of the girdle diameter.

Measurements

Diamonds are given three measurements to specify their dimensions. For fancy shaped diamonds, the measurement specifies length x width x depth. The length is the larger dimension as you view the diamond from the top and the width is the smaller. The depth is the height of a gemstone, from the culet to the table. The measurements determine the length to width ratio and can indicate the quality of cut of the diamond.

For round diamonds, the measurement specifies diameter 1 x diameter 2 x depth. Round diamonds are never quite perfectly round given they are cut by humans. They are given two measurements for diameter to indicate the maximum and minimum diameter. These two diameters vary slightly, but should not vary by very much.

POLISH

Describes the finish of the facets of the diamond. Polish is graded from Ideal, Excellent, Very Good, Good, Fair, or Poor. Polish grades of Good or higher have the least effect on the brilliance of the diamond and are suitable for the finest quality jewelry. Certain gem labs, such as Gemscan, incorporate Polish into an overall cut grade.

TABLE

The largest facet of a gemstone, located at the top. Table % is the table width as a percentage of the girdle diameter.

Girdle

The narrow rim around the widest part of a diamond, separating the crown from the pavillion.

Culet

The tiny facet at the bottom tip of a gemstone. The optimal culet should be pointed or very small (graded "small" or "none").

FLUORESCENCE

Describes the diamond's response to ultraviolet light. In diamonds with strong or very strong fluorescence, there may be some interference with the flow of light which causes a milky or oily appearance. Canadian diamonds almost always have none to slight fluorescence.

color

Color is the natural color visible in a diamond and does not change over time. Colorless diamonds allow more light to pass through than a colored diamond, releasing more sparkle and fire.

D

Near-colorless. Slightly detected color—a good value.

clarity

A diamond’s clarity refers to the presence of impurities on and within the stone. When a rough stone is extracted from carbon deep beneath the earth, tiny traces of natural elements are almost always trapped inside. These elements are called flaws or inclusions because they are formed naturally and are unique to each stone.

cut

The cut refers to the angles and proportions of a diamond. The cut of a diamond—its depth and width, and the uniformity of the facets—determines its beauty. The skill with which a diamond is cut determines how well it reflects and refracts light.

REPORT

A diamond certificate or grading report provides an expert opinion on the quality of the diamond and is provided by an independent gemology lab. Trained gemologists with specialized equipment measure the weight and dimensions of the diamond and assess quality characteristics such as cut, color, and clarity. Brilliant Earth diamonds are certified by the world’s leading gem grading labs including GIA, IGI, HRD, and GCAL. If the diamond lab certificate is not available online, please contact us to request an electronic copy.

Length-to-Width Ratio –The length-to-width ratio compares the length of a diamond to its width to show how elongated a fancy-shaped diamond appears when viewed from the top. Length-to-width ratio is a matter of personal preference with some individuals preferring a more elongated shape and others a more equal or square shape. The most popular length-to-width ratios for fancy shapes are below.

Ex. A princess-cut diamond that measures 5.05 mm long by 5.00mm has a length-to-width ratio of 1.01 (5.05/5.00), and will appear perfectly square.

Chain Length

The length of the chain will determine where the necklace will fall, whether choker length, at or below the collarbone, or at the neckline. We measure the length from the beginning of one end, to the end of the other, including the clasp (which may add an additional .75 inches). Different lengths are worn for different occasions and different outfits. The most common length is the 18" length, which typically falls at the collarbone.

18": At collarbone. Classic length.
20": A few inches below collarbone.
22": At or above neckline. For more dramatic, stylish look.

Dimensions of Center Stone

The dimensions of the gemstone are the length and width of a gemstone as it appears from the top view. Dimensions represent the size of the gemstone more accurately than carat weight.

Dimensions of Gemstone

For colored gemstones, dimensions are the best way of accurately measuring size. These dimensions are accurate plus or minus 0.2mm.

Gemstone Color

Color is used to describe the color present within a gemstone. Color is described in terms of tone and hue. Brilliant Earth carefully selects gemstones with even color distributed throughout the gemstone.

Gemstone Clarity

Clarity is used to describe the presence of impurities on and within the gemstone. If the clarity of gemstones is specified as "eye clean", no visible impurities or flaws will be seen with the unaided eye. If the gemstone is "moderately included," there may be moderate flaws that are visible upon examination.

Treatment

Many aquamarines are heated in a controlled environment to ensure their blue color is as vibrant and pure as possible. This heat treatment is an accepted industry standard which mimics natural processes to maximize the beauty of the stone.
